Every once in a great while at work, some of the folks I work with who're responsible for having goodies around for executives to give away will clean out their stockpiles by inviting other members of the department to raid their stash.
Recently, access to this Holy of Holies was granted to yours truly, who, being the maniacal West Wing fan that he is, immediately snapped up the first four seasons of the show on DVD.
I was, to say the least, in Hog Heaven. Even though I have no idea what that phrase really means, or where it comes from.
I don't remember exactly when this bounty fell into my lap -- I think it's over two months ago, and probably before the holidays -- but I've been slowly savoring the series, bit by bit.
This past weekend, I came across an early episode from the fourth season called "Debate Camp," during which there were flashbacks to the staff's early days in the White House. In one storyline, Donna is punk'd bigtime by the guy who's held her job in the previous administration.
I'd remembered this episode from the first time it'd aired -- this whole fourth season was one of my favorites -- and I'd particularly remembered the actor who'd played the guy who pulls one over on Donna. Now that I have the pause button at my command, I could find out a little about the actor, whose name is Jeffrey Pierce.
Which brings us to my latest Inappropriate Crush. He's cute as hell in that West Wing episode, but he's even cuter these days. Apparently last year he starred in a sci-fi series called Charlie Jade . It's on TV in Canada, but not in the USA. Go figure. I've seen a trailer, and wouldn't mind seeing it for myself.
